The hybrid moccasin-like sneaker was designed to maximize comfort, which is why it comes equipped with multiple layers of [extra-light cushioning](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-zponge) and a thick memory foam padded midsole. Meanwhile, the inside of the shoe contains a [shearling fabric liner](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amour-suede-shearling-bridges) that matches the beige tones of the shoe's sole and laces. The main material used to craft these cozy kicks is a premium suede, which has been given Golden Goose's premium distressed treatment. In addition, the Space-Star is being offered in a backless edition, perfect for users who tend to crush the back of their home-dedicated footwear.
